Chapter 110: The Mystery of the Dragon Tomb (3)

The next paragraph is about some things that happened to the dragon down below. It is very simple, and there are only a few things to talk about. When it first came down below, it was not used to it, but later it found a place where there was just enough qi (qi) to survive and hide.

Later, in order to pass the time, it subdued the four great demon spirits, deliberately befriended some cultivators, and in the end, it wanted to return to its hometown.

However, reality is always disappointing. It cannot meet the conditions for returning to its hometown (I don’t quite understand what the conditions are here), or it thinks that it is also included in the section of “evil fruit.” However, it believes in karma and knows the grace of heaven to humans, so it restrains its own behavior and has been living peacefully for years, still looking for a way to return.

But in the end, after trying many ways, it could only stay here.

Slowly, later, it felt the end of its life. After all, the place below was different from its hometown, and it did not have such a long life here!

So, at the end of its life, it was prepared to make a desperate attempt to break through some barriers and return to Kunlun!

However, that “earth-shattering” action failed. It condensed all its power into a single grasp, but not only did it fail, it also caused a slight disturbance in the higher laws (time and space), and it was destined to die here.

But how could it stop missing its hometown? So it built a dragon tomb here, in a rare “spiritual and beautiful” place on earth, and used a large array to gather spiritual energy, opening up several rooms for cultivation, hoping that the Kunlun preachers of that time would come here and, in the place where it was truly buried, break through the barrier again and bring its body back to Kunlun!

This piece of classical Chinese text ends here, but Chengxin and I stood there for at least five minutes before we were able to think normally again.

“Chengyi, did you see it?” Chengxin asked me such a silly question.

“Yes, I saw it.” I answered stupidly.

“This is really the tomb of the dragon, the dragon from Kunlun, so it’s not wrong to call it the tomb of the immortal. What do you think?” Chengxin asked.

“I think that the master and the master have been here before. If we go further in, we will get the answer,” I said. But while I was answering, my mind was still churning. It was such a powerful blow that it wanted to break through the barrier. Time and space have always been the highest law in Taoism, and it could cause such a small disturbance. It was too rebellious.

But is there really no such place of chaos in the world? Is there no such thing?

I think this place is not the only one that has been covered up. Not to mention things that have already been spread, such as missing airliners, missing people, suddenly overlapping streets, seeing another space, and those repeated rumors being false? I can only say I don’t know!

Because I originally thought that those things had nothing to do with my life. Even if I were a cultivator, I would not be an explorer of the mysteries of the world. Apart from the Tao of my country, I have never had the slightest interest in the fabled Atlantis civilization.

But now, after reading this shocking article, I don’t know what to say. I can’t say that it’s all a lie, can I?

With this in mind, we continued on. This long corridor, apart from the jewelry and the article at the entrance, had nothing worth exploring.

The murals are carved like the work of a master, but most of them are brief descriptions of the dragon’s deeds, such as teaching monsters and taming the four great monsters.

After reading the article about Kunlun, all of this was no longer appealing.

After walking through this corridor, we entered another one. We couldn’t help but sigh, compared to the tombs of kings and generals with all kinds of tricks, this dragon tomb is simply outrageous!

The corridor that comes into view is even simpler, with all the glitz and glamour gone. It is simply made of bluestone, with no decorations at all, except for the still-gorgeous long-burning lamps. On either side of the corridor are rooms!

We don’t know how many rooms there are, because the long-burning lamps here mysteriously disappear at the back, and the end is a vague darkness that we can’t see clearly, so we can only move forward.

Here, I also somehow understand that the words spoken when entering the tomb were probably a welcome to the talented people of the world. It turns out that the dragon just wanted its bones to return to its hometown.

I don’t understand what happened to Kunlun, or what kind of disaster there was below, so that the capable people of Kunlun would open the door of Kunlun against the heavens. I also understand how supreme the laws of space and time are, so I can only sigh that that incident really made many of Kunlun’s existence bear the consequences.

I even thought of the purple worm. In the description of the flower patch, didn’t it also want to return to its hometown?

As we walked along, we naturally couldn’t miss those rooms, and the doors to the rooms weren’t locked. They were just ordinary copper doors. When we pushed them open, there were no extra furnishings inside, just a stone bed, a mat, and a stone table.

But as soon as I entered the room, I felt the surging spiritual energy that the cultivator needed. The dragon had indeed opened up such a cultivation room and concentrated the spiritual energy here for later cultivators of Kunlun or people related to Kunlun to practice here.

According to this quiet room, there should be nothing to discover, but a row of words left on the wall is so obvious.

We walked over and looked at it carefully. The words on it were very simple: “Su Zheng, a Daoist from Kunlun, left these words here more than ten years ago. He left sadly because he had not achieved anything. If he finds a way to solve the problem in the future, he will definitely return and take his remains with him.”

Even such a simple inscription made us take a deep breath, indicating that someone from Kunlun really came here, but unfortunately there was no way to solve the problem, so they had to leave sadly. As for the future, we guessed that there might be no way to solve the problem, otherwise the Dragon Tomb would not have continued to exist.

Anyway, this person is also a Taoist predecessor. My brother and I respectfully bowed to him, then quietly left the meditation room.

Then we continued on, and in each of the meditation rooms we would check to see if there were any notes left. A few of them had no notes, but most of them did, and the general meaning was that they had failed and left in disappointment. Of course, not every note was that simple, and there were also reminders for future generations about what to do if they came here, and what to do if they were told to do something. It was disrespectful to read these, so as long as they had nothing to do with us, we didn’t dare to read them, and we could only leave respectfully.

After passing through a dozen or so meditation rooms, we discovered a problem. The people who left messages were almost all people who had attained enlightenment in Kunlun, and no one had used the same meditation room twice. This made me feel that the influence of Kunlun’s teachings in that era had not really expanded much, because it had been prevented. This conclusion can be drawn from the messages left in the meditation rooms!

Moving forward in silence, we could clearly see that in front of us was a screen wall similar to the one in front of ancient houses.

The screen wall was carved with a vivid five-clawed dragon!

At this time, we also saw that there were only seven rooms left, and there were originally only 20 quiet rooms here!

Xue stared at the screen wall quietly, and I couldn’t understand her expression. I was a little anxious because my master had said that the answers were in the dragon tomb, and I hadn’t gotten any answers since I entered.

We could only continue on, passing through four more rooms. We didn’t see any words left behind, but we judged that those four rooms were not places where anyone had been. After all, rooms that people have been in are definitely different from those that no one has been in. You can tell from the dust in the room.

There were only three more rooms left. I couldn’t hold back my impatience, and I said to Chengxin, “Let’s look at it the other way around. You know that the master is very powerful. What if he wants to use the room furthest back?”

“What kind of theory is that? Is there any necessary relationship between the most powerful and the innermost?” Chengxin looked at me in bewilderment.

I don’t know why I said that, but I don’t want to think about the reason. Instead, I simply walked to the last secret room!

Except for the first one and the last one, the other secret rooms are all facing each other. I don’t bother to think about why the Dragon Tomb was built this way, but I just push open the door of the last meditation room with some impatience.

As soon as I entered the door of this quiet room, I felt a surge of spiritual energy. This energy was so strong that I immediately held my breath and dared not let the spiritual energy rush into my body!

The reason is simple: I can’t afford it! At the same time, I finally saw the two inscriptions. All of a sudden, my heart fell back into my chest. The answer my master said should be here!
